"Melody, watch your language. The way, you changed since leaving is truly horrible." Mila declared. "I will not allow you to return to AKB0048. Neither me, your father or any other member of our family stand for it. Period. It's for your best."

"It isn't!"

Melody was about to continue and tell her mother that this was wrong. Louis supported her, and her mother knew that. Her mother however didn't gave her a chance to say anything.

"Being an idol is not a fit profession for anyone, least of all a member of the Ooto family, and that is for a number of reasons!" She continued.

Behind them, Akari sighed silently. Her opinion of people who were against idols was lower than the bottom, even if she originally was one of them.

"Your edcation, for one! Do not dare to think that I did not notice that you have not been able to keep the same standard when you were on Akibastar as you have done your entire life here." Mila continued, leaving Melody cringe for a few seconds. She knew very well that her mother was right.

"Dreams may have value, but when they hinder your future, they need to be discouraged." She continued.

"And, then there is the fact of the way you are dressed. Look at your current clothes." Mila pointed onto Melody's clothes. "Already in private, you are dressing like this already, I have seen the photos and quote 'uniforms'. Best case scenario, the midriff isn’t showing. And-"

Akari had enough. "Yeah, horrible! One could catch a cold in those uniforms!"

"That too! I cannot imagine wearing this on planets like Tundrastar. Whoever is in charge of the outfits, the person should wear them before on their own. And don’t even get me started on the gravure images! You are lucky, young lady that I haven’t been able to find any of yours."

"Yeah. Because Melo doesn't do gravure. Surprise." Akari continued commenting in the same, sarcastic voice. Mila didn't listen to her though.

"And, to be honest, while I respect AKB0048 defending music, I cannot support them in having run-aways join them. There is a reason why parents are able to decide what their children do, and this reason is a good one. I cannot allow you to be a member of a group full of children who run away from home and once they graduated have nowhere to go!"

Akari coughed. "Sorry for running away from a planet where music is considered to be bad." The only thing, Akari earned was a glimpse full of disgrace and despite.

"And don’t you dare, for one second, think that your CD’s sell as much as they do because the music is good. It’s not. The only reason your CD’s are selling, is because of the handshake events. That is the only reason AKB0048 is getting sales. It is-"

"Actually, no." Sasshi interrupted. "Saying that all members sell all slots, you have got about 42 members * 25 slots - 525 slots multiplicities with about 500 tickets per slots. That are 2 625 000 sold CDs. 00 sells more."

Once again, Mila didn't listen to her. Likely, she didn't even believe that Sasshi had calculated that just now and just made up something.

"You could, and should, do better things with your life! If you think being an idol is a presentable job, then look no further than your ‘colleagues’. Getting to fool around on a stage, pretending to be happy, is not just a job, it is a disgrace. You leech off of other people’s efforts, and the moment you aren’t ‘pretty’ or ‘cute’ anymore, you will be cast aside. What then, Melody? What then?” She took a deep breath. “Well, it doesn’t matter anyway. You are 13, Melody. You are still developing, and you are too young to decide something as important as your future.
